Because the Fighter class has no actual class features and there aren't enough feats to make getting that many bonus feats useful. Almost everyone dips for 2 or 4 levels. Some go further to get dungeon crasher alternative feature. I've only seen 1 build that was worth anything and was fighter 20, and that was an insane tripper of doom.

@Sstrad: If you like the Fighter and got access to some sources and time... Why don't you make a fighter handbook? Would be really nice Ofc, it's a lot of work and won't be like a way to uber-over-powered builds, but it would help a lot of people, I'm pretty sure.

It's more... the fighter class is too generic for you to decide on it before you decide your character concept (every class "fights"). There could be, say, a TWF handbook with fighter builds in it, but a handbook for fighters wouldn't really make sense. It's like a cookbook of recipes that use salt.
